A Des Moines teenager faces charges of eluding police, driving without a license and other traffic violations after allegedly leading Pleasant Hill police on a high-speed chase Friday evening.

Police spotted the 15-year-old driving the ATV, which is not legal for street driving, near the 5100 block of Northeast 23rd Street. The boy allegedly sped away from officers, weaving on bike trails and city streets before finally being stopped at Northeast 12th Avenue and Four Mile Creek Drive near the Copper Creek development.
